I love this game’s characters. They’re all a bunch of stereotypes but none are outright dirty or mean-spirited. That being said they weren’t afraid to have fun with it.
The reason why "Von Kaiser" says Combat Boots is because he is "Marching into Battle". It doesn't make much sense regardless if you are a German native or English speaker but the developers wanted a PC way to say "Blitzkrieg" or "Stürmen".
It's a family friend way of saying Blitzkrieg Im assuming, Which is unfortunately general associated with WW2. Im guessing Nintendo censored it because of that so The devs had him say Combat boots as a substitute.
If I were a game developer on Punch Out Wii, I woulda turned losing to glass Joe into an un-skippable 5 minute cut scene celebration where Glass Joe is welcomed like a hero on parade through the streets in Paris. (Edit) I like all the suggestions that expanded upon the idea. Wether it be being welcomed back to his family and village for winning one more match against a nobody, to winning in Title defense and being hailed as a national hero. So long as it's a 5 minute un-skippable cut scene :D . Cheers to all of you.
"Combat Boots!" Is slang for "Get your boots on!" Or "Get ready for war!" By exclaiming this, Van Kaizer is telling Little Mac to that he should get ready for a beating.
Yeah, it's kind of clear from the comments and how people make fun of him saying "COMBAT BOOTS" none of these guys have ever heard of the military... It's clearly just a phrase of encouragement. the Military has TONS of them, they're shouted to get the soldiers psyched up for battle or a tough undertaking. Like watch the Air assault trianing video where everyone screams "AIR ASSAULT!" He's basically just saying "BOOTS ON THE GROUND!" or "READY FOR COMBAT!" in a word. But the 3 shoe beating was funny. I'll let this one slide! XD
Contender Don Flamenco's "ay, no no no!" when you catch him with a Star Punch was always my favorite voice line in the game. Best of all the "oh crap" reactions the boxers would have to the punch.
Do boxers get headgear when they get 100 losses?? I thought it was just a change in his design to show time has passed and he's better prepared this time around lol
@@rosencvetanov6129 In Russian, how would be "как". There's another line Soda gives out where he asks "как это?" which as the video states stands for "how could this be?"
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it already or how common knowledge this could be, but here it goes anyway: The "Don" in Don Flamenco is a title, similar to "Mr" in English, so his stage name can actually be translated to Mr. Flamenco
i wonder if that was a subtle advertisement or a jab at people who think they are deep by spouting "deep" lines from other media -some f*ckwhit on the internet
It’s a minor thing but Piston Hondo isn’t saying “Oh, sushi,” he’s just saying “Sushi.” In Japanese the “O” is a sound often put in front of words that pertain to daily life. So for food, it’s stuff like sushi (which becomes Osushi) or rice (which is Han, but becomes gOhan). So you can say osushi or sushi in japanese, and both just mean sushi. Hope this helps!
@@konkeydonk Hmm...interesting. That can make sense. I wondered why you would want to bow DURING the fight. Unless you want to hit someone, you want to keep your arms up for defense.
@@Patricio4Christ In martial arts, this is not disrespectful because it is said that you must keep and eye on the opponent at ALL times. So this is one of the small exceptions. Still have no idea why he bows during the fight, maybe for the audience?
@@willow1011 Then Piston Hondo should know this, and knows that it will be disrespectful to look at him during a bow, so why not just don't bow? He's taunting then
@@romoreyes2557 Well, you see, he may be bowing to show honor as Japanse people care very much about their honor in sports. Back in feudal Japan, Samuria commited suicide because they had been dishonorable.
I am German and Von Kaiser always made me laugh :) Every time he says "bums" I lose it. Edit: "Tantenkaffee" refers to coffee with your aunt, not tea. It refers to a practice we call "Kaffee und Kuchen" which means having coffee and cake with your relatives or friends. Older people love it and talk for a million hours and younger people are mostly bored when the relatives won't shut up about stuff that you weren't alive for. It can take from 5 to a billion hours and don't believe your mom when she says they're wrapping up. That's code for another hour at least :)
Very interesting, because in Afrikaans we have our own version. It's called "Koek en tee" which means cake and tea and has the same definition as what you gave
When "great tiger" say "drink your mother's milk" he basically means "your mouth still smells like your mother's milk". Impling that lil Mac is a baby .
12:56 I'm a Turkish person and I want to clarify the contradiction that you showed. "Dayak yemek" is translated to "Being Beaten Up" which is a normal saying considering it's a boxing match. And "Bald Bull" translates into just "Kel Boğa", not "Kel Keldi Boğa".
3:38 I actually have an Idea for why he yells "Combat Boots!". The german word for glove is Handschuh. A compound word, meaning "hand shoe/boot". So this line would be a genius pun, because he is wearing two different types of combat boots.
Neat idea but I don't think this is the case. German military combat boots are famous for excellent quality and a lot of German soldiers define prestige and discipline over the shape and model of the combat boots they are wearing. *Literally you spend about 1/4 of your base military training in germany cleaning your boots!* - especially infantry units need to have shiny boots even when having an inspection in the middle of a combat training... ridiculous, but no joke! So the reason for this battle cry is most likely just the pure pride for having nice and clean high value combat boots.
@@overlordalfredo Yes, that's why he'd clean them all the time between rounds. But such a pun about boots, that only works in this unique context no less, simply can't be a coincidence. I'd say it's half and half.
@@overlordalfredo OH GEEZ!! Wanna know what I just realised? If Von Kaiser is really modeled after a WW1 soldier and his victory line is: "I go to the left, I go to the right. HA HA HA!" Doesn't that sound a little familiar? Left = west Right = east His victory line is the god damn Schlieffenplan.
@@steinmaniac7920 I don't know if it is exactly a WWI model he is based of, but I think the “I go left, I go right“ thing is quite literally just marching... Counting your steps while marching is pretty common, especially when he is supposed to be the instructor doing the counting out loud: “left, right, left“ The Schlieffenplan is a cool exaggeration though :D
I am Japanese.🇯🇵 Piston hondo says Japanese proverbs at intermissions. I will try to explain. ①「心頭滅却すれば、火もまた涼し」 (If your head and your heart are at peace , even a fire stays cool. ) One way of holding one's mind is to stop feeling any pain. ②「肉を斬らせて骨を断つ」 (Let your enemy cut your flesh and you will break his bone.) A metaphor for inflicting a greater blow on an opponent while being prepared to hurt yourself. ③「虎穴に入らずんば虎児を得ず」 (If you do not enter the tiger's den , you won't catch his cubs.) It means that in order to acquire a tiger cub, you have to take a risk in the cave where a tiger lives, so unless you take a risk, you cannot achieve great success or achievement. It is a proverb of similar meaning to 『Nothing ventured, nothing gained.』 ④「勝って兜の緒を締めよ」 (Keep the helmet of victory fastened.) It means that if you win a battle and take off your helmet with a sigh of relief, the enemy will not always attack you, so even if you win, don't let your guard down and be more careful. It is a proverb of similar meaning to 『Don't halloo till you are out of the wood.』 I hope it will be helpful to you. Thank you for reading. ( ｀Д´) 「礼！(Rei)」 ☆(*△((○=(･_･○ smash!
Never heard of "Don't halloo until you are out of the woods," but I have heard of "Don't count your chickens before they hatch, which I believe is similar in a sense.

@@blueboytube To be fair, French is a surprisingly complicated language for one who isn't born with it. It is filled with countless exceptions to its own rules, has over twenty verb tenses - half of which people do not even use most of the time, and often has way too many words for the same basic thing. In all honesty, if you learn even just a bit of French in 2.5 years, you should be proud. :)
@@blueboytube You have NO idea how much I would have loved to have an opportunity to learn German. It was one of my favorite languages whenever I heard it spoken, but the teacher who gave that class in my college back then retired the very school year I could have taken it. I was so disappointed.

More on this ahead.) 8:13: Accurate, but it's actually a commonly used mini-insult here. I get why people not familiar with local Hindi would be surprised. Now the thing is, most of the lines he uses sound very forced and unnatural. Some phrases, like the dust off the soles thing, is something you'd hear probably in the 1900's. Others, like the "Oh, betrayed", don't even make sense even in the context of Hindi. Either way, can I get a pin? :3
The insult about the mothers milk thing was something like "tell this kid/child to go drink his mothers milk and then come back." The "baccha" being kid
The character is from Mumbai, so he likely mostly speaks Hindi there. Worth noting that the composer who made his theme music is Daler Mehndi himself, so it may be possible that Great Tiger is Punjabi/Sikh who speaks Hindi.

Piston Hondo actually raises his head during his bow which is a sign of disrespect instead. So basically, he deserves every hit you throw at him during those bows, cause he's taunting you.
Not in martial Arts. And it's not really a sign of disrespect to keep eye contact during a down. Maybe if you're doing a very deep bow or cowtowing, you wouldnt look up as to try to show how sincere you are trying to be. But it's not disrespectful ( atleast in Japan, I lived in Japan for 5 years for reference)
I'm French Canadian, so here's a fun fact: Glass Joe claims to be French (as in, from France) but his accent is a dead giveaway. I put him south of Montreal, sure - but about an ocean's width away from Paris. He sounds the way a lot of Quebec's professional dubbers tend to sound, seeing as I was practically raised on Hollywood movies dubbed in Quebec's take on what you'd call Received French Pronounciation.
@@esralierdo24 Yeah, I'm just never too sure how clear that term is for any non-Canadian comment viewers. If I was sure the video was only being watched by other Quebecois, I would've gone with it. In fact - j'aurais aussi bien pu écrire en français.
King Hippo speaks an advanced version of the complex language minionese. (Minionese is the language of the Minions from the HIT movie Despicable Me. And has been comfirmed that Minionese is actually a mix of every languages around the world.)
the title defense version of glass joe is actually really hard if you get him in macs last stand. At the part of the game you are going to be used to fighting insanely fast opponents but glass joe is very very slow and he uses that as a weapon.
He was my first last stand opponent and he was way easier than my next two who were DK and Sandman, then I got "Free win Kiaser" and then stomped my my nemesis drug addict
6:01 In most Asian cultures bowing is how you show respect towards others and in martial arts tournaments it's how you show good sportmanship. 6:09 Hondo: Bows Mac: *PUNCHES HIM IN THE FACE*
8:33 Don Flamenco is so powerfull that he can send a bull to space with a single punch while Bald Bull at tittle defense just resisted the bull tackle.
Anyone who's taken a decade of french will know that real french people say "je suis ", and that "je m'appelle" is the arbitrary grammatically correct phrase they teach in school
@@florianwarin3540 Yes, but they pretty much mean the same thing, One is "I am" the other is "My name is" both work given the context, which is him introducing himself. Plus, this game was made in Canada, not France, our French is much different here.
12:57 That is a nice way of saying "Are you teaching mac to get his ass kicked?" edit: I know that the translation is wrong, but it would be funny as hell if this is what it meant.
9:36 "oh you poor thing/uy, pobre" "pobre" (poor) when referring to someone into that kind of context is like a way to pity that person. Basically saying "oh, you poor thing" has the same way you get it in english, so yes, you nailed the guess
@@Landonc48 i that contex mira may be the verb look, as in "Look at this!" So is it correct in the video. What is more i''ve never used mira as "sight", it's not too common tbh. 99% of time "mira" is refered as "look"
"Je suis" is just "I am", whilst "Je m'appelle" is closer to "I'm called/My name is". "Je suis" fits boasting a stage name more than "Je m'appelle". I guess in english schools, they teach kids to say "Je m'appelle " instead of "Je suis" cuz it's better in formal situations?
I am german And von Kaiser doesn't speak really fast People from other countries always think that Germans are speaking so fast I don't know why, but he speaks very slowly
@@anson2389 I am a person that speaks very fast So if normal persons think that von Kaiser speaks fast then they will think that I am doing an Eminem doubletime while talking to them :/
"Olé" is also used when you avoid something (a physical blow) or to taunt after outmaneuvering someone (like in soccer), both in spanish and portuguese
3:30 - The voice artist actually bungled his line there in an ironic way. He says "Ich? Deutsche Präsizion! Du? Windmühle!". Pay close attention: He said "Präsizion" instead of "Präzision", meaning he was imprecise on the word "precision".
Sure it does, google "spoonerims". People make grammatical mistakes all the time, it just doesn't show up in the media often because it comes off as unprofessionalism. You won't find any bungled takes in German media, either.
I find it funny the character with the second biggest ego is the most respectful or at least the second most respectful, even complimenting you on your skills several times in both matches, even when he's angry at you (Im of course referring to Don)
I should mention that while bowing is a way to show respect in Japanese culture, to keep your eyes on someone while you're bowing is more like a sarcastic insult. Piston Hondo is being rude to you, punching him in the face is kind of justified. EDIT: Ok, I came across some more information that I feel like I thought I should mention. "When Piston Hondo bows to Little Mac in the Wii version, he looks him in the eye, which in normal circumstances would be a sign of disrespect in Japan. However, martial arts combatants bow without breaking eye contact IF they are within striking distance. This is simply being prudent and has nothing to do with the etiquette of bowing." Source: Punch-Out Wiki, Piston Hondo's page
The updated bowing etiquette during combat is correct. When I was training in martial arts as a child, my teacher gave me the same lesson about bowing. Before and as we were leaving the dojo, no eye contact was allowed, with the bows themselves being quick in comparison to the more formal bow before sparring (which we were reprimanded over and allowed "free shots" on someone silly enough to drop their gaze). Dropping eye contact during an actual fight means you lose out on the subtle eye motions people make as they are about to strike in a certain direction, so he hammered that into us less because of the respect part and more so we wouldn't get our butts kicked during a real fight. My teacher relied heavily on slapstick humor around us small fry, but lessons he taught us cane from his own teacher, who trained in Okinawa during the 60s or 70s. It's been a long time so I can't remember the original decade. Just for a funny addition, the sane teacher used to square up in the ring against me on his knees because I was so little. I grew up to be taller than him -- which is saying something because I'm still very short! XD
@Just Squid It's more that I knew that you're supposed to avert your eyes when bowing through prior knowledge, but while I was looking through the wiki pages on the boxers (was checking to verify their special attack names if they had any), I saw this in the "trivia" section for Piston Hondo by chance.
@@JAWsInfinity and little Mac has to go and just punch the thing off… excuse what an absolute jerk Don is, what little Mac does is malicious if done on purpose. Funny if by accident :)
From what I've heard, looking up while bowing is a sign of disrespect, so the meaning completely changes from Honda showing respect to Little Mac to Honda being an unsportsmanlike bastard.
In my karate classes, we were always told to look at our opponent as we bowed. From what i was told, its to avoid the risk of a sneak attack because you can now see your opponent instead of the floor, which if its true is ironic in hondos case as thats how you get a star off of him
That was basically the reasoning I heard for why it's disrespectful. It's basically "You are my honored opponent and yet I don't even trust you enough to take my eyes off you for a second."
It’s a nod to samurais in history. Simply put honor was something that was so out of character it’s hilariously baffling how it got attributed to them. Traditional bowing was a good way to get your head cut off by samurai so people looked up to be sure they weren’t essentially committing suicide because of their good manners.
He only looks up in Title Defense. In Contender, he bows facing down every time, and you can get a star for punching him when he does. In Title Defense, he realizes that YOU’RE the unsportsmanlike bastard, so he looks up at you when he bows so that you can’t sneak attack him like an asshole.
The fact that Great Tiger just has casual conversations with his illusions like he's talking to co-workers is kind of funny.
his clones are his co-workers
Yeah it’s pretty funny.
I have to say it pretty sure he calls mac a cat not a kid
but later he calls him a child

Glass Joe can actually say "Je suis" instead of "Je m'appelle" given that Glass Joe is a stage name. "Je m'appelle" would be for the actual name.

If I were a game developer on Punch Out Wii, I woulda turned losing to glass Joe into an un-skippable 5 minute cut scene celebration where Glass Joe is welcomed like a hero on parade through the streets in Paris.
(Edit) I like all the suggestions that expanded upon the idea. Wether it be being welcomed back to his family and village for winning one more match against a nobody, to winning in Title defense and being hailed as a national hero. So long as it's a 5 minute un-skippable cut scene :D . Cheers to all of you.

That would honestly be kinda nice, I like the idea.
I mean the dude deserves it
Fuck yeah. Can I sign a petition for this?

"Combat Boots!" Is slang for "Get your boots on!" Or "Get ready for war!"
By exclaiming this, Van Kaizer is telling Little Mac to that he should get ready for a beating.
So he is preparing the almighty Three-Shoe-Beating.
@@robbiewalker2831 yes
@@NavyBallAnimations Nah, if we are talking reference wise, he is closer to the actual Kaiser ( WWI ) than to the mustache man ( WWII )
Yeah, it's kind of clear from the comments and how people make fun of him saying "COMBAT BOOTS" none of these guys have ever heard of the military... It's clearly just a phrase of encouragement. the Military has TONS of them, they're shouted to get the soldiers psyched up for battle or a tough undertaking. Like watch the Air assault trianing video where everyone screams "AIR ASSAULT!" He's basically just saying "BOOTS ON THE GROUND!" or "READY FOR COMBAT!" in a word.
But the 3 shoe beating was funny. I'll let this one slide! XD
The censors also told them he couldn't say "blitzkreig".
Hı, I'm Turkish and Bald bull doesn't actually says "spanked" in that line. He says "are you teaching Mac how to get beaten up?"

It does sound like it. Bald Bull’s voice sounded like Jumba from Lilo and Stitch, if he was speaking Turkish.
Contender Don Flamenco's "ay, no no no!" when you catch him with a Star Punch was always my favorite voice line in the game. Best of all the "oh crap" reactions the boxers would have to the punch.

Thats very interesting
This is why Piston is my favourite fighter.
It’s a minor thing but Piston Hondo isn’t saying “Oh, sushi,” he’s just saying “Sushi.” In Japanese the “O” is a sound often put in front of words that pertain to daily life. So for food, it’s stuff like sushi (which becomes Osushi) or rice (which is Han, but becomes gOhan). So you can say osushi or sushi in japanese, and both just mean sushi. Hope this helps!

I don't think people give Von Kaiser's voice actor enough credit.
I am German and Von Kaiser always made me laugh :) Every time he says "bums" I lose it.
Edit: "Tantenkaffee" refers to coffee with your aunt, not tea. It refers to a practice we call "Kaffee und Kuchen" which means having coffee and cake with your relatives or friends. Older people love it and talk for a million hours and younger people are mostly bored when the relatives won't shut up about stuff that you weren't alive for. It can take from 5 to a billion hours and don't believe your mom when she says they're wrapping up. That's code for another hour at least :)

12:56 I'm a Turkish person and I want to clarify the contradiction that you showed. "Dayak yemek" is translated to "Being Beaten Up" which is a normal saying considering it's a boxing match. And "Bald Bull" translates into just "Kel Boğa", not "Kel Keldi Boğa".
Typical Google Translate. Also you're correct.
@Ritim yine denk geldik.
3:38 I actually have an Idea for why he yells "Combat Boots!". The german word for glove is Handschuh. A compound word, meaning "hand shoe/boot". So this line would be a genius pun, because he is wearing two different types of combat boots.
Neat idea but I don't think this is the case.
German military combat boots are famous for excellent quality and a lot of German soldiers define prestige and discipline over the shape and model of the combat boots they are wearing.
*Literally you spend about 1/4 of your base military training in germany cleaning your boots!* - especially infantry units need to have shiny boots even when having an inspection in the middle of a combat training... ridiculous, but no joke!
So the reason for this battle cry is most likely just the pure pride for having nice and clean high value combat boots.
@@overlordalfredo Yes, that's why he'd clean them all the time between rounds. But such a pun about boots, that only works in this unique context no less, simply can't be a coincidence. I'd say it's half and half.
@@overlordalfredo OH GEEZ!! Wanna know what I just realised? If Von Kaiser is really modeled after a WW1 soldier and his victory line is: "I go to the left, I go to the right. HA HA HA!" Doesn't that sound a little familiar?
Left = west
Right = east
His victory line is the god damn Schlieffenplan.
@@steinmaniac7920
I don't know if it is exactly a WWI model he is based of, but I think the “I go left, I go right“ thing is quite literally just marching...
Counting your steps while marching is pretty common, especially when he is supposed to be the instructor doing the counting out loud: “left, right, left“

Piston hondo says Japanese proverbs at intermissions.
I will try to explain.
①「心頭滅却すれば、火もまた涼し」
(If your head and your heart are at peace , even a fire stays cool. )
One way of holding one's mind is to stop feeling any pain.
②「肉を斬らせて骨を断つ」
(Let your enemy cut your flesh and you will break his bone.)
A metaphor for inflicting a greater blow on an opponent while being prepared to hurt yourself.
③「虎穴に入らずんば虎児を得ず」
(If you do not enter the tiger's den , you won't catch his cubs.)
It means that in order to acquire a tiger cub, you have to take a risk in the cave where a tiger lives, so unless you take a risk, you cannot achieve great success or achievement.
It is a proverb of similar meaning to 『Nothing ventured, nothing gained.』
④「勝って兜の緒を締めよ」
(Keep the helmet of victory fastened.)
It means that if you win a battle and take off your helmet with a sigh of relief, the enemy will not always attack you, so even if you win, don't let your guard down and be more careful.
It is a proverb of similar meaning to
『Don't halloo till you are out of the wood.』
I hope it will be helpful to you.
Thank you for reading.

Absolutely. Both 'Je suis' and 'Je m'appelle' can be, and are, commonly used.
Thank god. I thought my 2.5 years of French in school were useless 😅
@@blueboytube To be fair, French is a surprisingly complicated language for one who isn't born with it. It is filled with countless exceptions to its own rules, has over twenty verb tenses - half of which people do not even use most of the time, and often has way too many words for the same basic thing. In all honesty, if you learn even just a bit of French in 2.5 years, you should be proud. :)

8:13: Accurate, but it's actually a commonly used mini-insult here. I get why people not familiar with local Hindi would be surprised.
Now the thing is, most of the lines he uses sound very forced and unnatural. Some phrases, like the dust off the soles thing, is something you'd hear probably in the 1900's. Others, like the "Oh, betrayed", don't even make sense even in the context of Hindi.
Either way, can I get a pin? :3
Thanks for this. Indian traveler here. Just wondering why he wears a turban like a Sikh. I totally thought he would speak Punjabi lol
Same I’m also a Hindi speaker it was kinda hard to understand him because he has such a deep accent
The insult about the mothers milk thing was something like "tell this kid/child to go drink his mothers milk and then come back." The "baccha" being kid
The character is from Mumbai, so he likely mostly speaks Hindi there. Worth noting that the composer who made his theme music is Daler Mehndi himself, so it may be possible that Great Tiger is Punjabi/Sikh who speaks Hindi.

Yea. That scream was actually added in post because it's not heard in game.
AhHhH
That scream is scary
Oof
Oof
"Olé" is also used when you avoid something (a physical blow) or to taunt after outmaneuvering someone (like in soccer), both in spanish and portuguese
From a Portuguese person you're wrong in Portugal when out maneuver someone we say Chupa or suck it
Olé is in general a phrase for when bullfighters dodge the bull
thank you for making this
12:41 also nice additional sound effect
Soup superwiibros on the Wii
how’s it goin
If you knock out king hippo there are literally screams of terror

I think that comes with the game
3:30 - The voice artist actually bungled his line there in an ironic way. He says "Ich? Deutsche Präsizion! Du? Windmühle!". Pay close attention: He said "Präsizion" instead of "Präzision", meaning he was imprecise on the word "precision".
Our German translator actually told us that while we were finalizing the translations! It is quite ironic ultimately.
I fucking love little language jokes like this, English doesn’t have something like that.
Sure it does, google "spoonerims". People make grammatical mistakes all the time, it just doesn't show up in the media often because it comes off as unprofessionalism. You won't find any bungled takes in German media, either.
Just more evidence on how freaking drunk Popinski was during the fight (well, it's either that or Mac's giving him serious concussions...)
Popinski is the Russian, We're talking about Von Kaiser.
For some reason at this part 7:10 I thought he said “A fiddle said my nipple hugged my ass.”
Lmao
NOOOO I CANT UNHEAR IT!!!!!
It also sounded like the dude said "Come bitcha niga fuck target."

I find it funny the character with the second biggest ego is the most respectful or at least the second most respectful, even complimenting you on your skills several times in both matches, even when he's angry at you (Im of course referring to Don)
I was about to ask who has the biggest ego and then I remembered Super Macho Man exists 😂
@@violetdagger2724 oh these sunglasses? You can't afford these glasses! And get your hands off the rope!
I should mention that while bowing is a way to show respect in Japanese culture, to keep your eyes on someone while you're bowing is more like a sarcastic insult. Piston Hondo is being rude to you, punching him in the face is kind of justified.
EDIT: Ok, I came across some more information that I feel like I thought I should mention. "When Piston Hondo bows to Little Mac in the Wii version, he looks him in the eye, which in normal circumstances would be a sign of disrespect in Japan. However, martial arts combatants bow without breaking eye contact IF they are within striking distance. This is simply being prudent and has nothing to do with the etiquette of bowing."
Source: Punch-Out Wiki, Piston Hondo's page
The updated bowing etiquette during combat is correct.
When I was training in martial arts as a child, my teacher gave me the same lesson about bowing. Before and as we were leaving the dojo, no eye contact was allowed, with the bows themselves being quick in comparison to the more formal bow before sparring (which we were reprimanded over and allowed "free shots" on someone silly enough to drop their gaze). Dropping eye contact during an actual fight means you lose out on the subtle eye motions people make as they are about to strike in a certain direction, so he hammered that into us less because of the respect part and more so we wouldn't get our butts kicked during a real fight.
My teacher relied heavily on slapstick humor around us small fry, but lessons he taught us cane from his own teacher, who trained in Okinawa during the 60s or 70s. It's been a long time so I can't remember the original decade.
Just for a funny addition, the sane teacher used to square up in the ring against me on his knees because I was so little. I grew up to be taller than him -- which is saying something because I'm still very short! XD
Tbh Mac is so short Hondo would have to bow comically low for that.
@Just Squid It's more that I knew that you're supposed to avert your eyes when bowing through prior knowledge, but while I was looking through the wiki pages on the boxers (was checking to verify their special attack names if they had any), I saw this in the "trivia" section for Piston Hondo by chance.
Wtf there's a punch out wikia
@@starlite5154 Nowadays the vast majority of games have a wikia.
My French friend says "Je suis Glass Joe" is still grammatically correct and is now very upset with you guys
Glass Joe: French

From what I've heard, looking up while bowing is a sign of disrespect, so the meaning completely changes from Honda showing respect to Little Mac to Honda being an unsportsmanlike bastard.
In my karate classes, we were always told to look at our opponent as we bowed. From what i was told, its to avoid the risk of a sneak attack because you can now see your opponent instead of the floor, which if its true is ironic in hondos case as thats how you get a star off of him
That was basically the reasoning I heard for why it's disrespectful. It's basically "You are my honored opponent and yet I don't even trust you enough to take my eyes off you for a second."
It’s a nod to samurais in history. Simply put honor was something that was so out of character it’s hilariously baffling how it got attributed to them. Traditional bowing was a good way to get your head cut off by samurai so people looked up to be sure they weren’t essentially committing suicide because of their good manners.
You may look up while bowing within striking distance
He only looks up in Title Defense. In Contender, he bows facing down every time, and you can get a star for punching him when he does.
In Title Defense, he realizes that YOU’RE the unsportsmanlike bastard, so he looks up at you when he bows so that you can’t sneak attack him like an asshole.

No, translation on video is correct.

@@aysencaylak586 I really doubt that... Because the subtitles are wrong in this video. They even got "I am named glass Joe " wrong
From nes punch out
9:01 a More like accurate translation would be "have you you seen how I charm the the girls?" or "have you seen how I make the girls love me?"
